VX Heavens Malware-Sharing Site Closed

Currently the website displays the following message:

Dear friends

How you can see, the VX Heavens server is unreachable since 23.03.2012. VX Heavens’ administration sincerelly apologies for the inconvenience caused to You.

For many years we were tried hard to establish a reliable work of the site, which supplied you with a professional quality information on systems security and computer virology. We do always believed that a true research in any field (computer virology included) is only possible in the atmosphere of trust, openness and mutual assistance.

Unfortunately…

Friday, 23 March, the server has being seized by the police forces due to the criminal investigation (article 361-1 Criminal Code of Ukraine – the creation of the malicious programs with an intent to sell or spread them) based on someone’s tip-off on “placement into the free access malicious software designed for the unauthorized breaking into computers, automated systems, computer networks”….

I remembered that searching the named "VX Heavens" through Google Search made a popup alert from Avira before.

Actually that's one of the reason to prevent even its design for enthusiast and professional users caused ordinary users may infected and not handle it properly.
